That project of yours would be great but, yes, quite a task. I'd spent a lot of time on my website, actually I need to put it back online at some point...hey now was a good time ! : http://stones.servebeer.com/

Thats excellent. Thats something along the lines of what I was working on, actually.

I think 'Training Wheels' was on our tracker a while back. It was on hungercity too, I think. Quality isnt as stunning as the 'roadie tape' that was uploaded in summer 2006, but its still definitely worth getting.

Thanks, yes I found it and I'm about to listen to it...ah the thrill of listening to new Stones music for the first time, can't beat that! Especially after first reading about Ready Yourself and Giving it Up in the Dieter Hoffman's Weissbuch at the Virgin store at Tottenham Court sometime in February of 1992! He must have had that tape at the time already...come to think of it he also mentioned Gangster's Moll in his book, now when is this one coming out!

I'll need to update the site for the new tracks and also links at many pointed to the old novogate forums. I'm glad I had saved the original post of bwaudby here http://stones.servebeer.com/Songs.htm because I somehow wiped it from my HD since.

Cool, cool. You mean this isn't an Obama/McCain/Hilary/Joey message board?

Speaking of Jiving sister Fanny, I love the Metamorphosis version, but I think the one off the Black Box is even better.

It wouldn't be hard at all to put together an album (or two) of unreleased gems, but I'd like to draw attention to Strictly Memphis (from DW), while being a fairly standard soul/rock tune has a great sing-a-long hook for it's chorus. ("Yes I'm Going to Memphis/ Yes I'm Going to Memphis/ And down to New Orleans") If it were made now, we'd call it a 'return to form', rather than the 'same old, same old' it probably felt like in '85. Also, Zip Mouth Angel, inexplicably left off Voodoo Lounge, and Fast Talking, which has Jagger doing his Dartford (as opposed to Caledonia) soul thing in the early seventies a la Let It Loose and Hide Your Love...probably didn't get developed further as it shares similarities to those aforementioned tunes, but I still dig it. Wish a good quality version of that one surfaced.

Are all 10 of Bill's Black Box tracks on Metamorphosis? I tried to google it but got only the big CD box? Is the running order known?

Only a couple of them match the titles that are on 'Metamorphosis'

Bright Lights Big City/Cops and Robbers/I'd Much Rather Be With The Boys/Little Red Rooster (Live)/Down The Road Apiece (Live)/Don't Lie To Me/If You Let Me/Godzi/Panama Powder Room/Gold Painted Nails/Fannie Mae/Down In The Bottom

Bill also suggests that 'High Heel Sneakers' was shortlisted (although its the interviewer who mentions it - Bill just agrees) in this interview by the Brian Jones Fan Club

http://www.brianjonesfanclub.com/articles/a2_bill_wyman.pdf (see foot of page 31)

Klein rejected his choices as there wasnt enough publishing in it for him. I've never really understood what contractual reasons there were for ABKCO having the rights to issue an album of unreleased songs in the mid 70's. The Stones left Decca in 1970 and gave them the unreleasable Cocksucker Blues as a parting gift (the terms of the contract were that on leaving the label, the Stones had to submit the master of one unreleased song), so its a bit hard to comprehend why ABKCO were able to put out these songs five years after the Stones parted company with them. Anyone know?

Bill seems to have assembled the Black Box album immediately after the Rotterdam 'Black and Blue' sessions ended in early February 1975.
